    Hey Mike, that's a really interesting piece, not seen anything like it before. Can you tell me what wood that roof tent is made from?

    I deserved that, didn't I?

    Couldn't resist! Looks like a lot of fun though Mike.

    Huge amount of fun....both making it and using it. Having an elephant walking by within 3 feet at night, or being woken by hippos.....just magic!

    That sounds unbeatable! Has it got on-suite?
    Show/hide user stats
    Yep, I've got a shovel, and the whole wide world is your toilet!

    Can't ask for much more than that.

    Mike, I've heard of ''If this truck's a rockin' don't bother knockin' '' I didn't know it applied to tents as well. and yes that is me.

    With the nocturnal neighbours it must be " Aesculus Hippocastanum"

    What education? I was dragged up in Thanet! They never managed to knock my love of reading out of me though! It's the botanical name for Horse Chesnut to save people from looking it up. ( Oh living in greece for some time also helps with latin , strangely enough.)
